STUDY OF GREEN COMPOSITE FOR APPLICATION OF PASSENGER AIRCRAFT INTERIOR

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

The increasing consumption of composites has raised environmental concerns related unsustainable production processes of both synthetic reinforcing fibres and polymers, also to their limited recyclability. The perceived scale of the problem has led to stringent legislations, end-of-life vehicle directive. A potential solution with a view to alleviating environmental issues associated with the use of synthetic fibres in composites is represented by a return to natural materials to replace both the matrix and the fibrous reinforcement. Interest in bio composites reinforced with plant fibres was therefore rising over the last years.
